The QHSES Leadership Academy has produced new graduates and pledged fresh action against unemployment, unsafe workplaces, and weak leadership culture, strengthening its role as a global training hub.
At its recent graduation ceremony, the academy produced 643 graduates drawn from 17 nationalities across seven countries.
Founder of the academy, Jamiu Badmos, said the institution deliberately runs tuition-free training because high costs of certification have historically locked many Nigerians out of opportunities. “I grew up in Mushin. I know what it feels like to lack school fees. Instead of spending my life condemning government, I chose to add value. This academy is that value,” Badmos said.
He explained that the academy, accredited by the American Council of Training and Development (ACTD), and endorsed by 15 professional bodies, has introduced a new workplace philosophy known as Safetainability—Safe Thinking, Sustainable Living.
The model combines safety with sustainability to guide leaders in building stronger businesses and communities.
In 2024, the academy also launched Safetainability-4-Orphanage, an initiative that supports orphans through training, feeding, and mentorship.“Orphans are no less human. We want them to smile like every other child,” Badmos added.
At the event, the academy also unveiled the Foundation for Excellence in Sustainability and Human Development (FESHD), which will serve as the umbrella for its initiatives, including QHSES Leadership Academy, Safetainability-4-Orphanage, and the SustainablePEOPLES
